EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the essence of justice and injustice in a mesmerizing display of artistry. Titled "Justice (or Equity), with Injustice and Contrast" this oil on copper painting by Giuseppe Cesari, also known as Cavalier d'Arpino, is a masterpiece from the 17th century. In the center of the composition stands Justice herself, or Equita, radiating power and authority. She holds scales in one hand, symbolizing balance and fairness, while her other hand rests on a sword representing punishment for wrongdoing. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke that brings life to her majestic figure. Flanking Justice are two contrasting figures: Injustice and Contrast. Injustice personified appears sinister and twisted, holding broken chains as she revels in chaos and oppression. On the other side stands Contrast - an enigmatic figure whose purpose is to highlight the stark differences between justice and injustice. The use of oil on copper adds depth to the colors used by Cesari, creating a luminous effect that draws viewers into this allegorical scene. This artwork now resides at Pinacoteca Tosio Martinengo in Brescia, Italy where it continues to captivate visitors with its timeless message about equity versus inequity. Ghigo Roli's skillful photography preserves every intricate detail of this historical piece for generations to come. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, art has the power to provoke contemplation on societal issues such as justice
